Electromagnetics for Engineers (CD-ROM companion)

CD-ROM companion of Electromagnetics For Engineers, Prentice Hall, Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, 2005, which was developed to serve the student as an interactive self-study supplement to the text. E-book uses standard HTML with Javascript and Java for the interactive and animation capabilities. Make sure these are enabled in your browser preferences. Many requirements are guidelines and so it is worth trying your system even if the requirements are not strictly satisfied. If you are using a recent browser, there's a good chance you have all you need to view the e-book. This e-book contains animations figures, example problems, and interactive modules as supplemental material for learning the concepts presented in the accompanying book. This e-book is intended to work on a variety of hardware platforms, software operating systems, and browsers. For courses in Electromagnetics offered in Electrical Engineering departments and Applied Physics. Designed specifically for a one-semester EM course covering both statics and dynamics, the book uses a number of tools to facilitate understanding of EM concepts and to demonstrate their relevance to modern technology. "Technology Briefs" provide overviews of both fundamental and sophisticated technologies, including the basic operation of an electromagnet in magnetic recording, the invention of the laser, and how EM laws underlie the operation of many types of sensors, bar code readers, GPS, communication satellites, and X-Ray tomography, among others.
